By Request, ‘Amazing Grace’

Yes, I know I posted Amazing Grace just a couple of days ago. But “SlimJim” asked for it, and anyway, I’m not sure there’s any such thing as too much Amazing Grace.

I selected this performance by Andre Rieu and his orchestra–and by Jove, before I was over, my eyes were filling up with tears. Ditto for a lot of people in the audience. They’re filling up again now. Stop that! Sorry–I can’t see Andre Rieu without thinking of my aunts’ living room at Christmas-time.

And no, we are never going to meet the mortal who has had his fill of God’s grace.

Wow thank you for sharing that. Glorious! I sometimes think God created the bagpipes just so that it can play Amazing Grace.
You said: “And no, we are never going to meet the mortal who has had his fill of God’s grace.” I say AMEN! Which is why I can’t get enough of this hymn!

You can’t ever go wrong with Amazing Grace! Such a beautiful hymn any way it is played.

Since you’re still taking requests, I’ll make one today. Can you play “Do it Again” by Elevation Worship? (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZOBIPb-6PTc) I haven’t been able to get it out of my head for the last two days. We’ve had an exceedingly difficult time in our household over the last month and a half, so there’s probably a reason I can’t let go of this song. 🙂
